Sweet 2nd Trailer…'The Hobbit'

We’re wading further and further into Tolkien week, and as each day goes by, that venerable rogue Peter Jackson continues releasing new media for the upcoming first entry in his latest Middle Earth venture, The Hobbit. A day ago, we were treated to a bevvy of hi-res images from the film; today, we have a new trailer on which to feast our eyes. While the clip released earlier this year played a bit broadly, this latest bit of footage focuses much more on establishing tone, and it should be to no one’s surprise that Jackson appears to have nailed it. The Hobbit represents the lighter side of Tolkien’s fantasy; humorous and punctuated with whimsy so as to keep darkness at bay. For your viewing pleasure:

Normally, this is where I’d have an opinion on the actual trailer, but I’m not seeing much of a point in articulating perspective here. We all know where we stand on The Hobbit and we’re all likely to be present on opening weekend (something which New Line and Warner Bros appear to be banking on). The Hobbit hits theaters December 14th; how much more excited for the film are you after watching this new trailer? Sound off!

FEATURED INTERVIEWS

Talk about an early Christmas present. In our laugh-a-minute interview with Ella Hunt (actor/singer/zombie slayer) we talked about about hair flipping, zombie kills + more in ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE.

We had a blast catching up with co-writers/co-directors Rich Moore and Phil Johnston to discuss RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET. This sequel upgrades the heart of the original, has style for miles, and takes fun and excitement to the next level.

Our favorite film out of Fantastic Fest 2018 was YOU MIGHT BE THE KILLER. We got to sit to producer Griff Furst, director Brett Simmons, and co-writer Thomas P. Vitale for nearly 30 minutes, and it was just as fun as their film.

Writers/Directors Jonathan & Josh Baker talk with us at length about grounded sci-fi and the “anti-blockbuster” in their amazing debut film, KIN.

We sat with Joonas Suotamo to discuss playing Chewie in SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY, his inspirations, Kashyyykian basketball, and the finer points of a Wookie roar.

Interviews with the creative team at Mondo as well as reviews and announcements of whatever cool stuff they have coming down the pike.
